In my tasty Tuesday post I had a link to frugal mom's once a month cooking (oamc). I have been thinking about giving it a try.
I was thinking of doing my first atempt during the Christmas holidays. My plan is to make a list of ten different meals and we will have each meal three times in the month.
Has anyone else ever done oamc? I think to do this kind of cooking would save us a lot of time. The clean up after tea would be easy and I wouldn't have to plan dinner during the day. When I came back from Adelaide last week the house was still pretty well organised. The only thing that was big was the washing. I knew it would be like that though. I am pretty sure if I hadn't cooked ahead that the place wouldn't have been so organised. I am also hoping that it will save us a bit of money.
All about Therese, Steve, Daniel and Angelique, Sam and Jess, Madeline, Brigette and Adriano, Tom, Amelia, Christopher and Joseph. Come on in and share a cup of coffee and see what is happening in our lives.

I haven't tried it but I think I'll look into it.
This seems like a great idea when you are cooking for a few people on a regular basis. For just the two of us, we find that we can eat leftovers at least once or twice a week (not counting lunches) since most recipes make enough food for four.
Oh I've tried ti once or twice...in my own way. I am just not that naturally organised, nor can I work in that way. The best I can do is to cook double and freeze one lot for another meal. Mostly though, I only cook enough for my hungry tribe and only a little is left over the next day for my hubby's lunch.
Looking forward to hearing about how you go with it though!
